Stayed here in mid July 2024. I arrived late and tired due to being on a motorcycle and the heat. Easy to find. Front desk was super nice. Room was cool. Clean. Quiet. Safe. Every room has a parking space right in front so you...Read More
VacationSoloLocation: 5Above average room for this class of hotel.Take the dam tour. It’s worth it. Not packed like Hoover. Second biggest dam in the nation. Lake is beautiful. Good roads to ride or trailer to hike.I felt safe the entire time. I left my laptop and other electronics (gps etc) in room several times as I went in an out. No issues or concerns at any point day or night. Felt safe.Everything you would need is walkable from a supply or food standpoint. Or places to hang in town. To the dam or lake I would drive. 10 min drive to lake. You could walk through town in 20-30 mins. Within 5 you are at options.Lots of options close by. You can walk or drive. Either way you are at an option in less than 5 minutes.Close to lake, dam, gas stations, food options, moto shop, WiFi allowed me to attend work meetings.Great value

Owner / manager went above and beyond to help me reserve a room for 3 people and two beds when another local lodge could not accommodate our late check-in. They even honored the price that I originally booked on Priceline. Highly recommend. I will update this...Read More

This place is absolutely disgusting. Sink leaked and they used a towel to try to soak the water up, but it left bugs and am awful stench. I would even bring myself to shower as there were small black bugs on the floor of it....Read More

We had a car emergency and it was 103 degrees, so we checked into the Shasta Dam Motel because it was the closest and had air conditioning. I told the guy at the front desk our situation. I also told him my daughter has asthma...Read More

I just left this place 10 min. ago on 8/20/2025. I am 59 years old and recently had knee replacement surgery. I use a walker at times just to take the pressure off so I don't get too sore. I walked into the office and immediately...Read More
SoloLocation: 1I didn't see them but the lobby was a mess.If you're disabled they will not let you stay there. No kidding.Should be shutdown.

Shasta Dam Motel was the perfect stop for a hot shower and good nights sleep. Owner turned on our AC before we arrived, so the room was nice and cool. We sat outside relaxing and were joined by a very friendly cat.

This motel used to be a favorite stopping place of ours, on trips going to northern California and beyond. We stayed there in mid-June, and discovered that it was no longer the sweet funky little place we used to like. Room and shared …

Old place. Didn't expect a five star. Reasonably clean, could be better with a little effort. The pool is excellent. It is deep so one can swim and tread water easily. Very refreshing when weather is 105 degrees. AC in the room kept up very...Read More

First let me say that I am rating Shasta Dam Motel as a "5" in comparison to other motels of it's same type--old motor court type motels from the 1940 & 50's. As you exit off Interstate 5 to get to this motel, you come...Read More

I wish I didn’t have to give any stars to this place.... This motel is completely misrepresented on all of the booking sites and is a total health hazard... We arrived late, around 11pm. Nothing really seemed clean at all, sink in kitchenette was patched and painted...Read More

I've stayed here twice so far. Quirky, retro rooms in a pretty small complex with a big green common area with a grill that's free to use. It's directly next to I5 so there's traffic noise. The rooms are pretty retro and obviously older, …

My trailer broke down when passing through and my child and I needed a place to stay. We found this place online. When we arrived the entire parking lot was completely empty. Not a single person in site. When I rang the bell for service,...Read More

BED BUGS! I woke up the next morning covered in bites and only realized it was more than a few bites once I was in the car. I sent an email and it was ignored. When I called they told me they would not offer...Read More

One of the places where one shouldn't judge a book by it's cover. Wide and comfortable place, especially considering it's not a franchise motel. Owners are really kind, mini fridge is bigger than other inns, place has cable, and value is …

I have got to say that this motel was very quaint and pretty. Although the room was small, it met all our needs and it was very clean. The king size bed was super comfortable, such that I haven't had a good night sleep like...Read More

I was excited to visit this quaint little motel on my visit. I came with my children, and checked in the afternoon of my 1 quick night stay, then returned to visit my family that lives in Shasta in order to not have to do...Read More

Beware! I don't know where their good reviews are coming from but this place was GROSS!! Way overprice and dirty dirty dirty! You can tell from the pictures they haven't moved furniture and vacuumed properly in a long time! We had been …

Off the beaten path! Check in with friendly owner was easy and quick! Its an older motel just like you would see in a movie, with all the charm! It's off the main road and half a block from McDonalds that is open untill...Read More

I searched for something affordable with character.. For a night on the road I really didn't want to spend upwards of $65. for simple lodging. We wanted clean, safe, and fun in a pretty setting. We found cheap, decent, and friendly. Think …

This motel is family owned and operated. They have water bottles for .50 cents in office. We traveled with two younger girls and they seemed to enjoy the lack of traffic in the lot where they played. The pool was warm and cozy and so...Read More
